VST not found (Bigseq2)

Post by Goseba » Mon Mar 16, 2009 10:58 am

I have just installed Audio Damage's Bigseq2, but Live 7.0.14 is not seeing it.

I have deleted the preferences.cfg file and rescanned but no joy.

Any suggestions as to how to sort this out appreciated?

are you sure it's in your 'vst' folder?

It is definitely in the folder with all my other vst effects (not instruments).

EDIT: Just installed it in the same folder as my VSTi's and it makes no difference.

That's strange. I upgraded and installed bigseq2 last night and it worked straight away with 7.0.14

Have you tried doing an uninstall of the plugin and then deleting any artifact files if there are any and isntalling again. If you still cant get it working I would email chris at audio damage.

Did you buy it as a new plugin or get the upgrade from bigseq 1. You on mac or pc

Some times I need to put VST's in there own folder within the VST folder for Live to see them. Don't know why but it works.

Thanks for the suggestions.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but it doesn't help. I have just bought BS2, not upgraded from the original version.

Tonight I will try inastalling it in to it's own folder.

I have emailed Audio Damage support too and am awaiting an answer.

Installing Bigseq2 in it's own folder has made no difference. Even when selecting it's own folder as my VST folder it is not recognised.

Still awaiting a reply from Audio Damage support.

I have a feeling it is VST.dll related (or something peculiar with my PC), not host, because Chainer doesn't see it either and MiniHost reports an error.

Thanks, I'll check the size of it tonight. I use Opera and have downloaded it twice now. Each installer downloaded seemed to install without any problems.
